Directions

Print out the Backyardigans Finger Puppets printable and help kids cut out the shapes of the characters.

Step 2

Trace the shapes of the characters onto foam sheets or cardboard. Cut out the foam or cardboard.

Step 3

Help kids glue the characters to the foam or cardboard and allow to dry.

Step 4

Use a hole puncher to cut two holes at the bottoms of each character about 1 to 2 inches from the bottom. Using the puncher, punch around the circles to make the holes big enough for kids to poke their fingers through.

Step 5

Have kids stick their fingers through the two holes and have fun making the characters walk, run, and--of course--dance!

Tip: For durability, you can reinforce the area around the fingers with clear adhesive tape.
